I sleep super hot too. I can sleep with a fan on, no problem. But I'll gladly cuddle.. especially in the winter.

I'll expect you this December

 

[SassySheDevil]

I'll expect you this December

Do you actually have a winter?

 

[DarkSimian]

Do you actually have a winter?

No....but I expect to see you under my tree (or at least the mistletoe)

 

[SassySheDevil]

No....but I expect to see you under my tree (or at least the mistletoe)

okay

 

[DarkSimian]

okay

Woohoo!

Alright so if everyone loooooves the cold so much then why are y’all always all up in my home state?!

Now I'm up north but I was born and raised in Florida. Let's admit it. Winter months are the absolute best weather wise! Deliciously chilly in the morning and a paradise of warmth by afternoon. That's why. Other than the beach and half naked bikini babes, of course.



Edited to add: Beachy clad men too, as long as they're not in Speedos.

So, I hate the cold, I love the heat. However, the last few yrs old Mother Nature has decided to fuck the Southwest. It seems like I'm in a competition with Bakersfield. CA for hottest hellhole in America. So, I'm running the A/C, but wearing long sleeves inside. Compromise

It’s going to be a very hot weekend in much of the US. I hope everyone has a place to be safe and comfortable. Today’s question: is the sweltering heat of mid-summer better or worse than the bone chilling cold of mid-winter? Sure it’s all relative, and results are biased by your current season but if you had to choose one, which would it be?

Cold. Give me the winter chill and frost any time.

Not that I don't enjoy some summer stuff. Baseball, festival season, the long days of sunlight. And the wardrobes. Bring on all the short shorts and summer dresses, it's a party for the eyeballs. But the heat and humidity just suck the life right out of me.

I like to be cool. I've never minded layers. And I just feel at home in the winter in a way I never have during the warmer months.

And, my opinion of course, there is absolutely no substitute for a cold, clear, moonlit winter night. It makes me feel more alive than almost anything else.

Plus, hockey.

True.
Winter months in SoFla are deliciously mild.

But if the crisp, chilly, moonlit, sweater-clad, icy, still, angelically winter white, cellulite hiding, deep freeze of the Great North is *where it’s at* then... lol... why so many of y’all be clogging up my freeways during your glorious months of bone chilling satisfaction? Why not just stay home and play Anna and Elsa and Kristoff?

Kidding. We love your tourist dollars. Come, infuse our economy. What epicenter?!

I try to avoid it at all costs but shit happens.

Yes.
Agreed.
Your posts are proof that shit, indeed, happens.

I'd scratch that one from Open Mike Night. You can do better.

TY. But I was using the FLA spelling.

 

[Trekka]

Mmm. Such insight. You know? I'm just not sold on your stance.

Last week I snorkeled with my daughter, hand in hand, on seas of glass, as we watched baby sea turtles swim hell bent for leather out to the open ocean.

I spent today lounging under an umbrella, poolside. I stared at the turquoise water, sparkling in the sun, entranced, as I ate fresh mangoes and enjoyed the scent of lime tree blossoms drifting through the air.

Later, I went for a dip and as I floated on top of the cool ripples, I gazed at the trellis, laden with passion fruit vine.

Soon, I plan to return to the chaise lounger with my man, and ride him properly under the summer stars, little beads of sweat trickling down my freckled and tan collarbone.

It's too bad you find my neck of the woods so abhorrent to your senses. Your turn of phrase, warmth, jovial spirit, and general jocularity is deeply missed.

Why do you care so much that I don't like Florida (the Keys are an exception).

You hold the record for most covid cases in a day. Disney World picked that very day to re-open. You elected a governor dumber than my shoe. You can't let your dog go swimming in a pond or lake because you won't have a dog any more. We can play this game but I don't think it's necessary. You like it. That's great. I don't. One less snowbird for you to fret about.

You think you have a monopoly on beaches and water?

Busted.
I don’t really care.

I do think you have a way with words that’s unnecessarily sharp, though.
Rude, even.
Uncalled for.
And I do my best to ignore you.
But sometimes it’s hard!

So tonight I took your bait.
You got me.

I am a maiden of Winterfell and prefer the cold to the hot.

We have 4 distinct seasons here and I certainly enjoy our summers - I feel like we appreciate them more because of the cold winters.

Besides, I can't sleep when it is hot and that makes for a cranky Suz. No one likes that.

Tone is hard to convey in this setting. 98% of what I write on here is meant as light-hearted and teasing. I'm not who you think I am. We got off on a bad foot when I intended something to be funny that turned out wasn't a good topic to joke about with you. I felt bad and have been trying to prove I'm not an asshole ever since. I guess the hole just keeps getting deeper. Don't worry, I'll avoid it from now on.

 

[Fermina_Daza]

I feel the question is like asking if I would rather be buried alive or burned alive. Neither is appealing. I'm definitely a fall type of girl. I love the smell of bonfires, days in the 60s, changing leaves, crisp air that doesn't hurt to breathe nor smothers you with the humidity.

I guess the “hole” (pun intended ) just keeps getting deeper.

That depends on what is being cranked.

Any suggestions?

Some of that evaporative cooling that Trekka was talking about under the starlight. She's got the right ideal there.
